About MoneyGram and Terrapay

Money Gram and TerraPay are both global payment companies that offer secure and reliable services for individuals and businesses to transfer money across borders. MoneyGram has been in operation since 1997 and is headquartered in Dallas, Texas. It offers services such as money transfers, bill payment, and money orders through a vast network of agents and digital channels. Terrapay, on the other hand, is a young and dynamic payment company that was founded in 2015 and is based in Amsterdam, Netherlands. It specializes in digital payments, enabling users to send and receive money through multiple channels such as mobile wallets, bank accounts, and cash pick-up locations. Both companies have a strong focus on innovation and are continually developing new technologies to improve the customer experience.

The Situation in the Market and Business Challenge

Our client required a solution that would provide pre-set rules for directing clients to the appropriate money transfer system, along with the flexibility to customize rules according to the bank’s and clients’ specific requirements. This approach streamlines the interaction between banks and payment systems, accelerates payment processing, and enhances the convenience of mobile banking applications for end-users. However, integrating Node-RED posed several challenges, including a research and development phase to design a sequence diagram outlining the order of method calls.

We have successfully developed an integration solution for our client that seamlessly connects them with two of the most reputable payment systems worldwide: Terrapay and MoneyGram. Our team worked diligently to ensure that the integration was carried out efficiently, providing our client with a streamlined payment processing system that is both secure and reliable.
